Paso Paso

Roaster: Bram De Hoog

The name Roble Negro honours the native Black Oaks, unique to the region. These majestic trees can live for more than 200 years and inspired the mission to work in harmony with nature. On this farm, nature is used to benefit the coffee plantation and vice versa, creating an unique symbiosis between production and preservation. As part of our collective Jorge, Alex and Dani motivate us to minimise our impact on our surroundings and apply circular principles where possible. The coffee is hand sorted and prepared for export on the farm, an unique feature for a relatively small farm. Jorge has made this possible through designing and building must of the necessary equipment himself with recycled material.
